QuickBooks Workshop Planned

QuickBooks 2006 is a tool that small business owners can use to automate the tasks they are already performing: invoicing customers, recording payments, paying bills and managing inventory.

A two-day QuickBooks 2006 workshop is scheduled for Thursday, March 15, and Thursday, March 22, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Pierpont Community & Technical College of Fairmont State University's Center for Workforce Education at Veterans' Square in downtown Fairmont. The training session is open to the public and is being conducted by the Pierpont C&TC Regional Small Business Development Center. The "QuickBooks Complete" training seminar is a hands-on, 12-hour training session that will help businesses manage accounts, track sales and expenses and create financial reports and other tools.

As seating is limited to 20 people, those interested in attending the seminar should pre-register by calling (304) 367-4920. Cost for the workshop is $299. There is an "Early Bird" discount for registrations prior to Feb. 15.

The SBDC is partially funded by the U.S. Small Business Administration, although such funding does not constitute an expressed or implied endorsement of any of the co-sponsors or participants opinions, products or services. All SBDC workshops are co-sponsored by the West Virginia Development Office. Special arrangements for the handicapped can be made by contacting the SBDC at least one week in advance.
